Cohousing-L Mailing List: RE: Group Size Units to Adult Ratios

[Gary.Stewart (Gary.Stewart]

hold on a minute here people

ratios and statistics work best (if at all) with very large numbers

even so when statistics are brought back down to individual application
level they can add more mud than light (the exception proves the rule)

cohousing by definition is VERY small numbers (and possibly by definition
the exception)

I therefore don't advocate a statistics approach (1/3 or 4/7)

I believe the anecdotal evidence of cohousers works well, not as a 'RULE'
but as information to be considered and acted upon (or not) as the case may
be!
